Real-Talk Torah: Kiddush Levanah - Is it Not Moon-Worship? 🌛

from The DataBeis with Rabbi Yehoshua Eisenberg · host Yehoshua Eisenberg

Does Kiddush Levanah not look or feel like moon-worship? If it's not that, what exactly is it? Why do we do it? And why, during Kiddush Levanah, do we (1) greet people "Shalom Aleichem," (2) sing "Siman Tov U'Mazel Tov"/"Dovid Melech Yisrael," and (3) break into dancing? In this session, we will visit the sources of Kiddush Levanah in the Gemara, Rishonim, and the Shulchan Aruch, and hopefully answer all of the above questions and more.
